The conversations with an almost 4 year old! Geesh!

So, today we had some errands to run. I called my Sister while we were in Rogers (where her son goes to preschool) and we decided to meet at Sonic. I was asking Baylee what she wanted for lunch and here's how it went... sometimes I wish I could carry the video camera with me everywhere we go!

Me: Baylee, what do you want to eat?Baylee: Momma, what are my c-h-o-i-c-e-s? (ALL DRAWN OUT LIKE THAT)Me: Cheeseburger, Hamburger, Corn Dog, Hot Dog or Grilled CheeseBaylee: I want a horn dog (corn dog), but not with the bread... just the horn!Me: What?Baylee: I don't want the bread on my horn dog!Me: Well, they can't make it that way... you will just have to pick the bread off I guess.Baylee: Well, I will eat all of my horn dog so I get big like you!

I swear this child keeps me rolling non-stop!

Yesterday when I was giving her a bath she asked me if she could HAVE a boyfriend? WHAT???? Ummm... HECK NO!

I'm telling you, this is the age to have a boyfriend...it's when they get to be almost 13 and start asking to have a boyfriend that you'll really want to say no! Horn dog lol...don't you love those conversations with an almost 4 year old?

Omphalocele and PPH/RVH

This page is for Baylee and Blair. Blair was born with a Giant Omphalocele on April 7th, 2008. She spent 7 weeks in the NICU at AR Children's. Amazed by the Dr's she came home at the end of May only on a little bit of O2 and no other medications. She was also diagnosed with a 3mm VSD of her heart. That has since CLOSED COMPLETELY and will not require surgery. Recently we found out that she was born with her heart on the right side of her chest. She had surgery on Aug. 20th without expanders. The Dr's were able to do a closure surgery with a bit of alloderm pulling the muscles together. We will be in St. Louis for a few weeks while she recovers.

Baylee is an energetic 4 year old. She loves swimming, her babydolls, playing outside and most of all her little Sissy! She is our little princess and we have been amazed at how well she has reacted to her little Sissy. She is WONDERFUL to her little sissy and loves her so much!

She was diagnosed on April 13th with a Right Ventricular Hypertrophy due to Primary Pulmonary Hypertension. In July we traveled to Boston to see a Hypertension Specialist. I LOVE this Dr! She is wonderful and answered all of my questions. She will have another Heart Cath on Dec. 1st to check the pressures in her heart again. She is now sleeping with a bit of oxygen just as a precautionary.

I hope that everyone enjoy's reading about our lives and if you learn something in the process that's even better!
